Vision

A world of financially independent citizens who understand and take responsibility for their financial choices and the impact those choices have on others and the community at large.

Mission

To equip youth and young adults with the tools and resources needed to achieve financial independence, allowing them to responsibly manage their resources and build entrepreneurial success, while pursuing their passion and maximizing their contribution to society.

Approach

To achieve our vision and mission for financial independence, we incorporate three core principles:

  • Financial Empowerment –Knowing is half the battle. We believe that financial independence can only be achieved with a strong foundational knowledge of how money works.
  • Personal Development –You are your best investment. We believe that financial independence is achieved through lifelong learning, self-improvement, and the development of mutually beneficial relationships.
  • Entrepreneurship – Ideas without execution perish. We believe that financial independence is closely tied to one’s ability to generate income in any economic environment.
